THE HIGH PRICE OF DISOBEDIENCE
Today's reading: 2 Chronicles 33-36

"The Lord spoke to Manasseh and his people, however they ignored all his warnings. So the Lord sent the Assyrian armies, and they took Manasseh prisoner. They put a ring through his nose, bound him in bronze chains, and led him away to Babylon." 2 Chronicles 33:10-11 NLT

They had their chance, you say?

They should've listened, you mumble?

Don't really feel sorry for them, do you?

Let's turn the tables: Are you willing to pay the high price of disobedience?

What He's telling you to do, are you doing with your whole heart?

What He's asked you to stop, have you given up doing?

Who He's asked you to speak to about Him, have you opened your mouth and heart?

Where He's asked you to follow, have you laced up your sneakers and set off on the trip?

Choosing to disobey? You have expensive taste. Prisoner. Bound. Captive. High prices to pay.

Are you willing to pay?

All right, so you might be--are you willing for your children to pay the same price?
